Hunter Stays in GOP Presidential Race

Everyone is waiting to see what Duncan does in Wyoming.

I am pretty interested in the South too- Two native sons splitting the vote, neither quite palatable... And the South has been know to trust a Western man or two. The Bell of Freedom rings true in Dixie...

[Soliton]

Selfish B*****d

[counterpunch]

I didn’t realize Duncan Hunter was in the GOP presidential race.

[Slip18]

See, Guennie, nothing is lost yet. Keep on rooting for your favorite POTUS!

[counterpunch]

Would I be the first to suggest a ticket of....
Hunter Thompson

For the last time, Hunter S. Thompson is dead.
 

[americanophile]

Well, there were 33 states in the Union and no television in 1860....

it’s a whole different ball game now, and after all, it was Abraham Lincoln.

I love Hunter, but he’s done. Of course, we do intend to run him for Governor in California.

[LowOiL]

Thank you Mr. Hunter... I am very pleased to hear this news.

[AmericanInTokyo]

Oh, you missed the debates?

[familyop]

"No, but is he smart enough to know when he’s wasting time and money? The MSM simply WILL NOT cover him and with that and no money, he’s done.

All that’s missing is the fork."

All that's missing is the realization that most of us will no longer tolerate a few importers, merchants, lawyers and politicians running our nation into the ground for foreign enemies.

Tactics of nonpolitical politics were developed by Americans to assist once-subjugated allies in deposing communist rule and can be implemented very effectively without any violence and without illegal actions to straighten things out wherever needed. That is...if rising freight fuel prices, wealthier Chinese consumers and the righteously falling dollar don't depose our lazy, sneaky tyrants for us in advance.

Duncan Hunter for President.

[AmericanInTokyo]

You have my condolences.

[AmericanInTokyo]

Absolutely!

[counterpunch]

No, I saw the debates.
Was Hunter the froggy looking guy in the corner with no neck that didn’t get called on all night?

[AmericanInTokyo]

But, "he cant win!" in California as Governor, either.

That is the assessment of the American Liberal Mass Media.

And heaven knows, we are to bow down to them, follow their orders and sniff their jockstraps all the wayand come to such a programmed conclusion, too.

They of course program us as automatons, so we should continue the mantra of "but, he can't win!" if Hunter were to attempt a run in California, isn't that your understanding??

[DakotaRed]

Check his record and message and ask yourself why he finished last.

Hunter is the real conservative in the race and the one most ignored by the media. Other candidates are trying to adopt his message as theirs.

If conservatives continue to ignore Hunter then there is no way I’ll ever believe they truly want another Reagan or a true conservative in the White House.

As on lady in Iowa told ABC News tonight, “With a too-close-to-call contest, the campaigns tried to woo first-time voters like Jennifer Stewart, 38, who moved, with her husband, to West Des Moines from Buffalo in the summer.

“My husband has to work late, so I’m here alone with the kids, and I’m just not willing to drag them down there for that long,” she said. “That would be too crazy.”

“I want to wait and see who pulls ahead,” she said.

Do we vote popularity or conservative values?

[AmericanInTokyo]

For a moment there, I had given you the benefit of the doubt.

But now I see where you are coming from.

Oh, my, isn't that special.

[DakotaRed]

The last time I recall hearing a candidatye touting his “Southern credentials” in the South, we ended up with Jimmy Carter.

Traditionally, the South is conservative and hopefully, will wake up to the media manipulation pushing moderates to the front.

[Grunthor]

“Do we vote popularity or conservative values?”

We vote for the most conservative person with a snowballs chance in hades of the nomination. Would I love to see Hunter up near the top? You bet. He isn’t and there is not much hope that he will be. Good freakin’ Lord that flaming KOOK Ron Paul beat the snot out of him!

[familyop]

"I’ll be one of those e-mailing and asking him to drop out rather than hang on in some vain attempt to look 'tough.'"

Former combat soldiers so hated and envied by feminist corporates and their anti-defense, metro-sexual peers don't feel compulsions to "attempt" to "look tough." That's why we're not the ones tossing ad hominem arguments, projections or statements of false masculinity around.

The War won't be won by lawyers, cops, movie stars, meddling, celebrity-worshipping hags or import bosses. It can only be won by Americans who have a will to fight--the will that we're not seeing yet.

[DakotaRed]

Would I love to see Hunter up near the top? You bet.

Amazing how many say this, yet refuse to support him, from the beginning.

How can we say we'd love to see him at the top and never support him?

As for kook Paul, those who say they like him support him. How can Hunter ever make it with so many saying they like him, but refusing to support him?

I really can't recall seeing this before in America.

[AmericanInTokyo]

So your political values system is one based on transitional polls and whom the mainstream US media dictates to the unwashed masses is a "player" and who is an "also ran", correct?

Upon these shifting and situational subjectives, am I correct?

Rather than based on objective, bedrock conservative values and identifying in your mind first and foremost the top candidate, who, lacking personal moral or ethical character flaws, is the closest to your thinking on a variety of political issues in 2008?

It is your vote.

Men and women secured it for you.

You have but one.

You use it the way you choose.

It is as much a statement about you, the person, as anything else I suppose.

Nobody can take it away from you and you can use it in that manner if you wish.

We all march to the beat of a different drummer.

It, however, is not my value system. Accordingly and proudly, I continue to support Duncan Hunter for President this year.
